Back at ABT this lovely morning for open class, after a nasty battle with a stomach bacterial infection. Thought I had done a good job avoiding the Balinese water, but I guess not good enough.
Three days in bed makes it extra hard to feel strong for the start of our rehearsal period, arghhh.
Time to hit the gym.
Fortunately we didn’t end up needing the mosquito net, but it looks awesome.
Ballerinas need vacations too!
We rented a private villa in the rainforest-covered moutains of Bali. Getting to the house was a death-defying feat, but it was well worth it.
On the most colorful plane ever. Our southeast asia trip begins!
I decided that since there is roughly a month before rehearsal period for our winter season begins, now is the official time to start a hard-core training regimen.
As it turns out, today is ABT’s return to work day. Most of the dancers take company class, but a few take the open class with Diana Cartier that I take. It’s always nice to have other professional dancers in class with you, to help push you harder.
Hopefully I didn’t push too hard though. I have a work-out session this evening at Cordel (my new gym) with a dude named Tone… that’s really his name.
